I know this is a nail, makeup type place for me but I wanted to share my weight story! and It is my blog sooooo read it or dont!
This is hard for me to put down in words I have already deleted this 3 times so please bare with me!
I have ALWAYS struggled with my weight even when I was at a healthy weight I hated myself and never felt good enough, pretty enough i guess. Ever since I can remember people have ALWAYS pointed out my weight "oh you look good did you lose weight?" "oh this person is really fat even fatter than Shannon" "do you really want to eat that?" and you know what?! Yes I have lost weight 52 pounds to be exact and I still feel fat..what?!! If you have never been fat (my largest im ashamed to say was 270 pounds) you will never get this..when I look into the mirror I see the old Shannon not the new slightly smaller Shannon! Why you ask? I have no clue! and yes I may have been fat I may still be fat but how dare anyone compare people in any way! Shame on you! and yes I will have that cake!
I am so done with society telling me I am ugly because I am not thin enough! Because I am beautiful! I am a good mom, I am creative, I am fun, I am smart (well not book smart but street smart) , I have this love for animals, and nature and I can see the beauty in EVERYTHING! I am good enough!
I am done with other people making me feel bad about myself, If you dont like how I look it is simple dont look at me! and before you compare me to someone else look in the mirror and make sure you are perfect!
All of the weight issues in society are causing young girls to self harm even kill themselves. Is it worth it? I do not think so! Every person is beautiful every person is here for a reason!
So can we stop focusing on weight so much? and focus on something else for a change? how about we lift girls up instead of tear them apart, they dont deserve to feel so bad.
I am done feeling bad about myself!
